Tactica7 Air Ranges Integration Facility
(TARIF) will soon be on line; supponing

TACTS is an extteme7y sophisticaled com-

(and TARIF) is the techn070gica7 beart of
Navy anack avialion bBining program. It has
also been described as the biggest and best
electronic bBining system evercreaaed.

tes1ed first at TARlF. then insta17ed at the
opcraIion site with a minimal down time. By
establishing a separate integration capability
at NWC. tbe pressure is Iaken off optIlIIiona1
ranges, whose only involvement becomes tbe
fmal acceptance.tests. A major portion of
TARIF RSpODSibilities will be integrating new
software and Iadware inlD these ranges.
Mike King; manager of tbe TARIF Soft-
ware Support Activity; said the comple1ed
project will in essence be 'son of a mini"
TACTS range at NWC." The only rea5 diJJer-
c:nce between TARIF IIId a TACTS range is
the number of remote interrogators; whicb
limit the coverage area. Functionally and
ope...ioroally, TARIF will be a TACTS nmge.
Beside tbe softWIR IIId hadware inlq1ation,
the project provides configuration manage-
ment of tbe software, cIocumenl8lion contro7;
and eleCtronic warf_ range simu\ata' inte-
